ComboBox functioning like textbox with Dropdownlist

[david]

Hi,

 is there a way to have the combobox or textbox act like a textbox with an embedded DDL.

The use case is to allow the user to type in the control like a textbox ... but

when they click into the textbox, a dropdownlist  appears and allows them to select an item if they choose?

 

thanks

like this example

 

                   <input type="text" name="product" id="product" runat="server" list="productName"/>
<datalist id="productName">
    <option value="Pen">Pen</option>
    <option value="Pencil">Pencil</option>
    <option value="Paper">Paper</option>
</datalist>
